  • In this paper, we present Emergency exit signs are installed to provide escape routes or ways in buildings like shopping malls, hospitals, industry, and government complex, etc. and various other places for safety purpose to aid people to escape easily during emergency situations. In case of an emergency situation like smoke, fire, bad lightings and crowded stamped condition at emergency situations, it's difficult for people to recognize the emergency exit signs and emergency doors to exit from the emergency building areas. This paper propose an automatic emergency exit sing recognition to find exit direction using a smart device. The proposed approach aims to develop an computer vision based smart phone application to detect emergency exit signs using the smart device camera and guide the direction to escape in the visible and audible output format. In this research, a CAMShift object tracking approach is used to detect the emergency exit sign and the direction information extracted using template matching method. The direction information of the exit sign is stored in a text format and then using text-to-speech the text synthesized to audible acoustic signal. The synthesized acoustic signal render on smart device speaker as an escape guide information to the user. This research result is analyzed and concluded from the views of visual elements selecting, EXIT appearance design and EXIT's placement in the building, which is very valuable and can be commonly referred in wayfinder system.

  • 이 논문에서 우리는 응급상황에 대응하여 일정 구간의 교통신호를 능동적으로 제어함으로써 재산과 인명 손실을 최소화할 수 있는 응급상황 대응 교통신호 제어 시스템을 개발하였다. 응급 차량 단말기에서 식별정보 및 GPS 정보를 포함한 응급신호를 송출하면 카메라에서 주위 영상을 획득하게 되고, 딥러닝 기반으로 객체를 분석하여 객체의 위치, 종류, 크기 등 정보를 가지는 객체정보를 출력한다. 이 객체를 트래킹한 정보를 생성하여 신호체계를 검출한 후 신호체계를 응급모드로 전환하여 수신받은 GPS 정보를 기준으로 응급 차량을 식별·추적하고 이 응급 차량의 진행 경로 기준으로 긴급 제어신호를 교통신호 제어기로 전송할 수 있는 체계이다. 이 시스템은 응급신호에 따라 우선 적용되는 긴급 제어신호에 의해 응급 차량의 진행이 저지되지 않도록 하여, 교통상 장애에 따른 인명과 재산의 손실을 최소화할 수 있다.

  • Purpose: This study was to develop PBL packages geared toward fostering the problem-solving ability, self-directed learning capability and communicative competence of emergency medical technician students and to give some suggestions on the development of PBL packages of the approach based on the evaluation results of the packages by experts. Methods: First, real clinical situations that learners would be exposed to after graduation should be provided as examples when the packages are developed. Second, a variety of learning-facilitating tools should be offered to facilitate their understanding, because they don't yet gain plenty of clinical practice experiences. Third, they should be encouraged to have an energetic discussion in small group when the developed packages are applied. Conclusion: First, the packages developed in this study were just incorporated into some areas of a single course. In the future, the integration of an entire course or the development of a new course is required to attain the multiple learning objectives in the provided clinical situations. Second, this study attempted to develop the PBL packages to boost the problem-solving ability, self-directed learning capability and communicative competence of emergency medical technician students, and follow-up research should be implemented to finalize the packages based on the suggestions of the experts who evaluated them and to determine the effects of the packages.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to develop a standardized protocol of systematic and explicit roles and procedures for paramedics for the maternal and newborn management during prehospital emergency delivery situations. Methods: This study is a methodological study with detailed step-by-step items proposed by an expert group based on evidence from a literature review. The content validity of the proposed preliminary prehospital emergency delivery protocol was verified before the final protocol was confirmed. Results: All 23 detailed items of the preliminary protocol met the reference cut-off (CVI value of 0.8 or higher). After considering, revising, and supplementing expert opinions for each of the 23 items 23 detailed in the proposed protocols, four steps were confirmed. The steps included five items for the management of the imminent mother, 10 items for delivery progress, five items for newborn management, and three items for postpartum management of the mother. Conclusion: This study's findings may serve as reference for developing future specialized training programs for paramedics, to ensure enhanced competence in prehospital emergency delivery situations. The protocol should be reviewed and revised periodically to ensure currency.

  • 본 논문은 인체의 생체 신호를 이용하여 응급상황을 예측할 수 있는 의료정보 시스템을 제안한다. 기존의 응급상황 관리를 위한 연구들은 대부분 바디 센서 네트워크를 중심으로 연구되고 있다. 이들 연구의 문제점은 응급상황이 발생한 후에 단순히 응급상황만을 전달하기 때문에 실제 상황이 발생하여 응급조치까지는 시간이 걸리는 응급조치 지연문제를 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제는 환자들에게 심하면 치료 불능상태에서 사망에까지 이르게 할 수 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결 하기위해서는 응급상황이 발생하기 전까지의 사전 응급징후를 파악하여서 신속히 응급조치를 할 수 있도록 응급상황에 대한 예측이 필요하다. 이를 위해서 본 논문은 센서 네트워크 기술, 인터넷 정보검색 기술, 데이터 마이닝 기술 및 의료정보와 개인정보 보호를 위한 보안 기술을 융합하여 응급상황을 예측할 수 있는 의료정보 시스템을 제안하고자 한다.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine if simulation training affects new graduate critical care nurses' knowledge, self-efficacy, and performance ability in emergency situations. Methods: Forty new graduate critical care nurses were randomly assigned to either an experimental or a control group. The experimental group had didactic with simulation. The control group received only didactic without simulation about emergency situations. The data were collected before and after the training interventions. An independent t-test used for difference among variables. Results: There were no significant demographic differences between the two groups or any differences on data collected knowledge, self-efficacy and performance ability. Following the training, there were significant performance ability scores (p<.001) among the nurses receiving didactic with simulation. There were no significant difference between the two groups relative to knowledge scores (p=.117), or the self-efficacy scores (p=.100). Conclusion: This study showed that simulation training for new graduate critical care nurses is useful to improve performance ability on emergency situations. Hence, providing simulation training to critical care nurses during an orientation period would improve quality of critical care nursing and help the new graduates nurse's adaptation.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the possibility of using gaze entropy to evaluate an operator's situation awareness in an emergency accident situation of a nuclear power plant. Gaze entropy can be an effective measure for evaluating an operator's situation awareness at a nuclear power plant because it can express gaze movement as a single comprehensive number. In order to determine the relationship between situation awareness and gaze entropy for an emergency accident situation of a nuclear power plant, an experiment was conducted to measure situation awareness and gaze entropy using simulators created for emergency accident situations LOCA, SGTR, SLB, and LOV. The experiment was to judge the accident situation of nuclear power plants presented in the simulator. The results showed that situation awareness and Shannon, dwell time, and Markov entropy had a significant negative correlation, while visual attention entropy (VAE) did not show any significant correlation with situation awareness. The results determined that Shannon entropy, dwell time entropy, and Markov entropy could be used as measures to evaluate situation awareness.

  • 해사안전을 위한 비상대응훈련 및 해기교육기관의 안전교육은 정해진 시나리오와 교육내용을 기반으로 실시되기 때문에, 다양한 상황에 따른 인적오류 감소와 대응에는 한계가 있다. 이에 대한 개선 필요성이 요구되고 있으나, 기존 교육훈련에 대한 평가와 상황의 다양성 확보를 통한 대응능력 향상을 위한 방안은 부재하다. 본 연구는 비상대응훈련 개선을 위해 상황 다변성을 모델링할 수 있는 이론적 절차 분석기법을 제안한다. 선원과 시스템의 유기적 관계에 기반한 인적 및 시스템 이론적 절차 분석 모델(HSTPA)을 정의하고, 각 구성요소들이 발생시킬 수 있는 오류를 분석, 수직적 보고체계와 대응이 요구되는 화재대응 훈련 시나리오에 이를 적용하여 기존 훈련의 한계점을 식별하였다. 제안된 HSTPA 모델을 적용한 훈련 시나리오 고려요소의 세분화 및 점검은 비상대응훈련 및 교육에 있어 다양하고 현실적인 시나리오 생성과 피훈련자들의 상황판단 이해력 및 대응능력 향상에 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

  • This paper presents a performance evaluation procedure for advanced emergency braking (AEB) system. To guarantee the performance of AEB system, AEB test scenario should contains various driving conditions which can be occurred in real driving condition. Also, performances of each elements of AEB system, such as sensor, decision, human machine interface (HMI) and control, should be evaluated in various situations. For this, driving conditions, road types, environment, and elements of AEB system were introduced. Test scenario has been designed to represent the real driving condition and to evaluate the safety performance of AEB system in various situations. To confirm that the proposed AEB test scenario is realistic and physically meaningful, vehicle test have been conducted in two cases of proposed AEB test scenario: subject vehicle cut-out scenario and narrow street turn left scenario.
